As writers, one of our roles is to set a scene that ignites our readers' imaginations and draws them into the world of our characters. We all know the classic "show, don't tell" standard, but how do we do that in a way that feels fresh and exciting? Film uses space, lighting, movement, and blocking to evoke certain emotions. In this Writing in Color Fest craft seminar, we'll look at ways to make sentences and paragraphs function like a camera.
This class is part of the Writing in Color Fest and is open to writers of all genres and creatives who identify as Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC+). The goal of the Fest is to provide a space for writers of color to be in community and thrive as they grow their writing skills.
